What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: Select frets were leveled and polished to match the surrounding frets. The frets were cleaned and polished. The truss rod and bridge were lightly adjusted. No further work was needed.

The Boucher SG-52-BV is a beautifully powerful dreadnought built for players who want clarity, headroom, and long-term tonal reward. Its AAAA Adirondack spruce top delivers bold projection and dynamic responsiveness, enhanced by forward-shifted, hand-scalloped bracing that feels lively and immediate. The one-piece South American mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard offer a smooth, confident playing feel, while maple binding and herringbone purfling add understated elegance. Finished in high gloss with Boucher’s meticulous attention to detail, this SG-52-BV is a serious, heirloom-quality investment—crafted to open up, mature, and inspire for decades to come.

About Manufacturer

A few years back a wonderful man named Robin Boucher drove to Sound Pure studios all the way from Canada. In his back seat, nestled in lovely tweed cases, he had some of the finest acoustic guitars to ever cross our northern border. We became immediate friends and his work was mind-blowing. The clarity of the tone, the immaculate fit and finish, the effortless playability. To top it all off, Robin got his start as a WOOD DEALER. He happens to live in an Adirondack red spruce forest!
